Tested on a 2018 AMG GT R in Porsche Ring, Audru, Estonia. So far I'm liking the CRS more. Price is the same as Cup 2, but it's faster and doesn't seem to be worse on street.
We also have good experience with Nankang on smaller cars. I have not tried them on bigger cars yet. They are a bit more noisy than the Vitour tires, but the white stripe on them seems to hold up a little bit better. But there is still no problem keeping them white.
I replaced my tires at 30k with Hankook Ion EVO AS EV tires. They are not cheap, but they are EV-rated and have good reviews.
Rs4s are the super long (ive done 24hrs on a set) lasting, heatcyle to death with almost all its tread left tyre of choice... But conti ecf last just as long and run at least 1.5s faster per lap (@ wgi).
I do endurance racing as well and the sponsored tire is the Hankook Ventus RS-4. They are a great 200TW tire for traction and durability. If you abuse it they won’t last. They are directionally treaded, but if you run in the dry it won’t matter which direction you run them, so rotating doesn’t have to be an issue. Similar to the AR-1, good lifespan for the performance at the grip levels when compared to the competition.
Kankook RS4, Khumo V730, Conti ECF, Falken RT660+ are tires I would consider on long lasting side of the performance category. I'm not sure they even make the RS4 now but there should be lots of old stock. Those tend to last so long you end up heat cycling them before burning up the rubber.
I’ve seen mixed reviews of them. With some saying they aren’t great in the wet(acceptable but lacking when compared to others), other saying they wear really quickly.
I have a set of Nankang NS-2R that I'd throw in the Ok tier. Faster than my rs4 were for sure. They are turning out to be pretty consistent all the way to the cords.
Also in Colorado with 50e. Have 21-inch wheels with factory Hankook “all season” performance run flats. Just ordered a set of Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5s for winter to replace the Hankooks that perform like I’m on an ice rink with bald tires…
my wife hates the tires .the m+s is horrible in the snow.
